Summary: Terrific At Exploding Many Stereotypes
Review: As a parent I wanted my four-year-old daughter to see other kids who "looked like her" and yet others who didn't. She enjoys the same things as the kids pictured: spending time with family, playing games, and dancing. The pictures are wonderful, not just from my perspective but also from hers.

My only disappointment was that she didn't see parents with disabilities like her father, nor kids with disabilities. Of course kids with disabilities spend time with family, dance, and play games. That they wouldn't is a pernicious stereotype. I wish the photographers had combated it.

Summary: A Rewarding Book for Kids of All Ages
Review: This book offers glimpses of the individual lives of children while it paints a portrait of the similarity of experience that children of all ages share. The photos are beautiful and the message simple - as equally appropriate for adults as for children.
